Note

This PR contains +117/-49 lines of production changes and +169/-41 lines of tests.

DPF deployment migration admission can use an attachment snapshot that changes before the request is written. An individual DPU request can therefore pass ordinary reprovisioning checks just before Site Explorer makes the host require coordinated migration. The controller can also mistake a parked Non-DPF reprovision for a DPF migration.

This change takes the existing Site Explorer attachment locks before Set and Clear load the snapshot that authorizes request writes, then rechecks request state after locking the attached DPU rows. The transaction retains those locks through a label lookup bounded to 30 seconds, then locks and reloads the DPU requests before writing them. Every Set request now performs the same locked recheck so it cannot overwrite controller progress. The controller resumes parked migration state only when DPF manages ingestion for the host. The public configuration documentation also identifies the node labels reserved by NICo.

Review Findings

Model Findings Overview

This PR applies focused corrections from the #5617 review to main, so the local review gate was not repeated. Hosted review found three runtime gaps and one public documentation gap; all were adopted.

Model Findings Details
  1. Adopted -- A controller could advance a DPU request during the Kubernetes label read when the target deployment was already active. Resolution: Lock and reload the attached DPU requests after every migration label lookup, then revalidate before writing.
  2. Adopted -- Kubernetes label reads could retain the Site Explorer attachment locks for several minutes. Resolution: Bound both sequential label checks to one 30 second deadline and return the existing DPF timeout error when it expires.
  3. Adopted -- An ordinary DPF Set request could overwrite controller progress made after its initial validation. Resolution: Lock, reload, and revalidate every Set request before replacing its request state.
  4. Adopted -- The public identifier validator documentation did not identify the node labels reserved by NICo. Resolution: Document both reserved labels and their purposes.

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • Bug Fixes
    • Improved DPU reprovisioning checks when host migration status changes.
    • Enhanced handling during active migrations to reduce inconsistent provisioning results.
    • Added safeguards and timeout handling during source validation.
    • Corrected migration detection to apply only to data-ingestion-managed hosts.
    • Improved deployment selection reporting after migration-related fallback decisions.
  • Documentation
    • Documented reserved DPF node labels to prevent conflicting deployment configurations.
  • Tests
    • Added coverage for migration-aware reprovisioning eligibility and deployment selection behavior.

Walkthrough

The change synchronizes DPF reprovisioning with attachment locks, bounded label validation, and current authorization data. It also restricts parked migration handling to DPF-managed hosts and records the final deployment selection.

Changes

DPF reprovisioning and migration handling

Layer / File(s) Summary
Locked reprovisioning validation
crates/api-core/src/handlers/dpu.rs
Set and Clear requests retain the transaction during DPF source validation, apply a 30-second timeout, lock attached DPU rows, and reload the authorization snapshot before writing requests.
Transaction-aware eligibility tests
crates/api-core/src/tests/dpf/reprovisioning.rs
Tests hold attachment updates open, verify request blocking, and confirm FailedPrecondition or Internal outcomes while preserving controller state. GB200 setup now writes through the outer transaction.
Managed-host migration handling
crates/machine-controller/src/handler/dpf.rs
Parked deployment migrations apply only to DPF-managed hosts. Deployment logging records the final selection after stale-label and migration-source handling. Tests cover both host types.
Reserved DPF node labels
crates/api-core/src/cfg/file.rs
The configuration documentation marks DPU_ENABLED_NODE_LABEL and HOST_BMC_IP_LABEL as reserved for DPF use.

Estimated code review effort: 4 (Complex) | ~45 minutes

Merge Risk: 🔵 Low · up to 4d1b3

The PR strengthens DPF reprovisioning admission and prevents non-DPF work from being resumed as migration. It is mergeable with owner awareness of a bounded consistency risk if deployment labels can reverse while admission is in progress.

Extend lock-and-revalidate to non-migration Set requests.

trigger_dpu_reprovisioning_request unconditionally replaces reprovisioning_requested, so a controller update between validation and the write can be overwritten. Move lock_attached_dpus, snapshot reload, and revalidation outside the migration branch for Set. Clear already checks started_at in its SQL predicate.

1663-1676: 🚀 Performance & Scalability | 🔵 Trivial

Consider a shorter deadline for the label read, or measure the lock hold time.

The bounded read resolves the earlier unbounded-blocking concern. One residual operational point remains: the transaction holds lock_all_admin_segments for the whole wait. If the Kubernetes API degrades, a single Set or Clear request can serialize all Site Explorer attachment work for 30 seconds. The admission gate then queues every other admin-segment writer behind it.

Two low-cost mitigations:

  • Reduce DPF_DEPLOYMENT_LABEL_CHECK_TIMEOUT to a value closer to the expected p99 of two verify_node_labels reads.
  • Record the lock hold duration as a metric or a structured tracing field, so the blast radius is observable before it becomes an incident.

No change is required for correctness.

@coderabbitai full_review, thanks!

Reprovision admission can determine deployment migration eligibility from an attachment snapshot that changes before the request is written. A parked Non-DPF reprovision can also match the migration recovery state even though DPF does not manage the host.

Take the existing Site Explorer locks before reading the authorizing snapshot, and require DPF ingestion before resuming a parked migration.

This supports NVIDIA#5618

261-268: 📐 Maintainability & Code Quality | 🔵 Trivial | ⚡ Quick win

Consider waiting only for the row lock this test depends on.

The tokio::select! accepts either the FOR UPDATE reload or the request UPDATE as the synchronisation point. Only the first one satisfies the assertion at Line 279. lock_attached_dpus runs before any write in the Set path, so the SELECT row_to_json branch is the one that fires. If the UPDATE machines SET reprovisioning_requested branch ever wins, the handler has already completed its second validation, the request succeeds, and the test fails with a confusing expect_err panic instead of a clear timing diagnosis.

Waiting on the single query the test actually depends on removes that ambiguity.

♻️ Proposed simplification
-    // Both the protected row lock and the stale write it replaces must reach
-    // the DPU row after initial validation before the controller moves it.
-    tokio::select! {
-        _ = wait_for_blocked_query(pool, blocker_pid, "SELECT row_to_json") => {}
-        _ = wait_for_blocked_query(
-            pool,
-            blocker_pid,
-            "UPDATE machines SET reprovisioning_requested",
-        ) => {}
-    }
+    // The protected row lock must reach the DPU row after initial validation
+    // and before the controller advances the request.
+    wait_for_blocked_query(pool, blocker_pid, "SELECT row_to_json").await;
